From another post of mine,
Three years ago we built a new one, they work great and stay at about 40 to 50 F all year, even though our outdoor temperatures can range between 90F and minus 50F (though only minus 35F for the last 12 years).

Enjoy your root cellar, we love ours, works great, canning on shelf, flour in metal cans, bins for other, etc.
Gotta go, all the best,
Alex
